Instead of having a final my social studies professor decided to
hold a mock interview in order to demonstrate our knowledge of the course
content. Three students volunteered to me administrators. The administrators
were to interview their colleagues. This had all take places in class on
Wednesday. Each administrator wrote a personal story, which they shared with
us, and created interview questions on various topics such as: direct
instruction, inquiry learning, cooperative learning, major concepts, generalizations,
blooms taxonomy, and elements of social studies.
Each administrator interviewed
their colleagues and asked the questions they generated. Administration was
then assigned to hire their colleagues based on their answers, personality, and
overall performance during the interview. I feel as though the questions asked
were all different yet based on the content we learned throughout the year. It
was amazing how each and every one of us knew all of the answers, yet answered
them in our own unique way. I was impressed with some of the questions that
were asked. The administrators put a lot of hard work and dedication into
writing their stories and creating such unique questions as well! I was truly
impressed. Overall the experience was amazing and I am truly appreciative to
have experience such a thing. It allowed us all to review the course material
while getting real life practice for our future interviews. We all prepared ourselves
and practiced as if we were in a professional situation. Each and every one of
us dressed up as well. We all looked great! J Having this hand on experience in a
setting that we were all comfortable in truly helped make this a positive
learning experience! I am excited to see all the images and pictures taken of
this day!
